A great quote that shows the ongoing delusion that is the GOP (H/T Driftglass)

[Grins]

"The big Republican accomplishment is that they have detoxified their brand. Four years ago they seemed scary and extreme to a lot of people. They no longer seem that way." - David Brooks, November 4, 2014.

And today, Dave...?

How is it this myopic buffoon, who has wrong about everything in American and GOP politics for decades, still have a job?

I had forgotten about this delusion from long ago until I was reminded of it in Driftglass' post.

Here. It's worth a read: https://driftglass.blogspot.com/2016/08/as-god-as-his-witness-he-thought-this.html

1. I'm always amazed that these high salary hacks get on TV and say things that I've heard 100 times

What exactly is it they’re getting paid for. I feel I could do their job better.

2. One doesn't hear much about Brooks anymore. Also Bill Kristol...

another guy who was always wrong with his political pronouncements. I understand he's no a never-trumper so that's something. He's at least right about that.
